DIY Carpet Tile with Peel-And-Stick

Carpet tiles are a great DIY option.

It’s hard to find carpet companies that are able to install carpet during the pandemic. Carpet is not an “essential business”. That’s where peel-and-stick carpet tile comes in!

You have options. We’re one of them. We think you’ll like working with us.

When shopping for any of the “big” purchases for your home life—mattresses, cars, appliances, and carpet/tile—you’re going to hear a lot of noise. People will say anything to make the sale.

When you’re buying carpet or carpet tile, you have a limited number of items to consider when finding the right carpet:

  • Brand
  • Type, Fiber, Color, Treatment
  • Inventory / Date Available
  • Manufacturer’s Warranty

Once you find the right carpet, you have options! You’ll likely want to shop around to find the company you trust the most with the best price. They (hopefully we) will sell you the carpet, and likely install the carpet.

You’ll probably be able to purchase the exact carpet type you want from a few different vendors. So why choose us?

Our strength is our customer service, our selection, and our pricing, plain and simple.

If you want to purchase Flor carpet tiles, you have options, for example Coventry Carpets & Flooring. We’re not afraid to link to other providers because we know you’ll find the right solution for your budget and your preferred people to work with.

We believe you want a no-pressure, helpful environment. Our goal is to get you carpet on your floors, to walk barefoot and drag your feet because you love the feel of the plush carpet under foot. We want you to love your carpet, no matter what.

If you find the right carpet when you’re visiting our location, but you find the carpet cheaper, let us know. If we’re not able to match the price, we’ll help make sure that the company you work with has the correct details. Your carpet is about you.

On carpet installation day, you’ll want a person to call if you have any questions. We’re always available on that important day. If you change your mind (but that never happens, right?), you’ll have us to call. We are not a warehouse, we’re a family-owned business invested in your happiness.

Please get in touch, and let us help you find that perfect match. We’re here to help you.

Carpet Installation Red Flags

Carpet InstallationCarpet buyers in Denver generally get their carpet installed by the company that sold them their carpet. This works well when the company is reputable. It doesn’t work well sometimes, though.

What to look out for when you’re buying carpet and having it installed.

Here are some things to watch out for when you’re having your carpet installed:

If you’re having the carpet installed by the company you bought the carpet from, are the installers working for the company, or are they freelance? If the installers are freelance, what company do they work for?

  • Do your carpet installers warrantee their work? You always want work to have a warrantee or guarantee.
  • Are the installers insured? Never allow someone to work in or on your house that is not insured.
  • Are they members of the Better Business Bureau or represented in an industry group? Know who you’re dealing with.

It’s easy to “go with the flow” and get your carpet installed, but it’s better to make sure you’re getting quality carpet installation up front. It may save you a headache in the future!

To be safe, you could always contact us and get your carpet installed professionally. 😉

Denver is Having Mud Season in January

With the warm weather we’ve been having in Denver, carpets are getting beaten up.

Denver carpets hate these feet!You don’t need LASIK to see the problem: you have two kids, three dogs, and your rug is starting to look three shades darker than it started. You have Denver weather all over your carpet.

1. Clean the carpet

We offer professional carpet cleaning services that will make your carpet look like new. Our steaming method removes 99.8% of all moisture after cleaning, so you can get back to enjoying your carpet immediately after we’re done.

2. Replace your carpet

Carpet cleaning is the obvious first choice…but cleaning can’t repair damaged carpet. Carpet fibers get frayed and carpet thins over time.

When you realize this, you’ll want to contact us for the best Denver carpet prices and carpet buying experience. Contact us today for a quote that includes a free carpet installation quote.

Spring mud is months early, so come see us about it!

If you want the most stain-resistant, high-tech, environmentally-friendly carpet (at the best prices in Denver), call us today.

Planning Your Carpet Installation in Denver

Denver Carpet InstallationIf you are planning on having carpet installed in your house or doing it yourself, there are a few obvious measurements and details, then there are the less obvious things to know.

Obvious carpet installation details

  • Square feet of
    • carpet
    • carpet pad/cushion
  • Linear feet of tack strip
  • Make sure you have the right tools

Less obvious carpet installation details

  • Is your floor squeaky? This can affect your sanity in the years to come. Once your carpet is up, you’re going to want to check for squeaks in your subfloor. Note: we do this for free when we install Denver carpet.
  • Make sure to vacuum and/or mop & dry (depending on the subfloor) to remove dust. Carpet can collect years of dust that settles below the carpet and carpet pad. When your carpet is pulled up, it is a rare opportunity to remove that dust. This can help with asthma, removing smells, and general cleanliness.
  • Paint the baseboard before putting it back. When you replace carpet, you’ll often encounter paint that is at the previous carpet level. Your new carpet won’t be the same height. Take the time to sand and paint your baseboards and you’ll be so much happier with the finished product.
  • If you get headaches after replacing your carpet, stay somewhere else for a few days and leave the windows cracked. New petroleum-based carpet can off-gas.

So when you are considering whether to hire professional Denver carpet installation or do it yourself, there are some tips to help you along the way.

Carpet Installation Tips – Installing Carpet Tiles

Why are carpet tiles such a hit in Denver? Seasonal damage control!

Carpet tiles are a big hit in Denver and around the country. One of the reasons that carpet tiles (or sometimes called “carpet squares”) are such a hit is because if you stain or damage your carpet, it’s simple to remove that one tile and replace it with a clean one. In Denver, where can snow six months of the year, it’s important to have a carpet that can handle that amount of debris.

Installing carpet tiles: good resources

If you’re interested in buying the carpet tiles from us, then installing them yourself, you’ll need to have some good information on how to do it. Here are some links you’ll find helpful:

A carpet installation tip that other sites don’t mention:

Before you start laying carpet tiles, draw your pattern on graph paper. If you’re interested, also draw the arrows that the tiles will be facing. This will give you a great guide that you can work off of, which is very helpful on complicated patterns!
